Landscaping and Driveways in Southend-on-Sea

Southend-on-Sea is where Gardenscape is based, so most of our working week is spent within a few streets of home. We have been laying patios, driveways and gardens here since 2007, and the salt air off the estuary is something we plan every job around.

What Southend gardens usually need

The Victorian and Edwardian terraces across SS1 and SS2 tend to have narrow front gardens and long, thin rear plots. Here the common jobs are replacing a cracked front path or small forecourt with block paving or resin bound, and turning a tired back garden into a usable patio with planting either side.

Seafront apartments and 1930s semis bring different problems. Exposed gardens take the full force of wind and spray, so we steer clients towards fixings, fence posts and surfaces that cope with it. Resin bound surfacing is popular because it drains through and stays tidy, and it carries our 10 Year Guarantee.

Being local also helps after the job is done. If anything needs looking at under the guarantee, we are close by and can arrange a visit without travelling across the county.

Practical answers

Do you charge to come out in Southend?
No. Site visits are free, and as our base is in the city we can usually get to you quickly.
Which postcodes count as Southend?
We treat SS1, SS2 and SS3 as Southend itself. Leigh-on-Sea has its own page as its hillside plots need a different approach.
Will the price change once work starts?
You get one fixed written quote after the visit, and that is the price you pay.
